If you’ve bought or sold a house in Fort Bend County lately, you know the market is hot, hot, hot! And in a hot market, the option period-the agreed upon period of time during which the buyer can cancel the contract for any reason without penalty-is of extreme importance. Local Realtor Nell Osborn says, “I often see option periods of 7-10 days. And in this period, time is crucial! We need to get the house inspected and get the report back in a timely manner. I have several inspectors on a list I give out to Buyers for their consideration.”
.
One of the inspection companies on Nell’s list is Top 2 Bottom Inspections, owned by local resident John Onofrey. Nell says, “John has been inspecting houses at least as long as I’ve been in business. The feedback I receive from clients concerning Top 2 Bottom has been very positive. And when we need the report during that critical option period, John generally gets them out to us by that night or noon the next day. And his reports are fantastic…filled with extremely useful information.”

John says, “I started the inspections business in 2003 and we have been growing since day one, inspecting properties all over Fort Bend and Harris County working with many fantastic real estate professionals like Nell. After we started doing termite inspections, our customers requested that we do their pest control too. In 2007 I started BUGCO Pest Control, and called on my old friend, Chris Millward to help head it up.” Nell says, “Some of my clients have remarked that when working with John, his team is licensed for termite inspections and all of the inspectors are military veterans. It’s so convenient during what is possibly the most stressful portion of the buying process!” And after you purchase the home…John can continue to help you keep the critters away. “As local guys, we know what kind of pests to expect…and how to deal with them,” says John. “We offer inspections and treatment for termites and other pests, rodent control and exclusion, and mosquito misting.”

A Navy and Marine Corps Medal for Heroism award winner, John carries the integrity of the Marine Corps into his two businesses. “We pride ourselves on delivering honest, responsible and effective service,” says John, “and the kind of personal touch you only get from a local, home-grown company. We understand you want to see the full picture before you purchase a home, and once you live there you want to protect your family from bugs and other pests. Buying a Home Soon? We are here to help you!”
